DPP Readiness Index · methodology before numbers

An international benchmark should be published only when the dataset is meaningful.

A transparent methodology for a future anonymised readiness benchmark by country, industry, company size and readiness dimension.

No benchmark numbers are published because the platform does not yet have a sufficiently meaningful, quality-controlled dataset. Publishing invented or unstable figures would undermine the index’s purpose.

Planned analysis dimensions

  • Country or operating market
  • Industry and product category
  • Company-size band
  • Overall operational readiness
  • Product and supplier data readiness
  • Technology and integration readiness
  • Traceability and evidence readiness
  • Assessment model version and completion period

Publication threshold and controls

A release should define minimum sample sizes, suppression rules, version compatibility, deduplication, bot and low-quality response controls, missing-data treatment and confidence intervals. No group-level result should expose an individual organisation or sensitive response.

Comparability limitations

  • Self-reported answers are not independent audits.
  • Different model versions are not directly comparable without a documented normalisation method.
  • Respondent composition can create selection bias.
  • Country of operation, manufacture, headquarters and target market are distinct variables.
  • Sector-specific modules must remain separately versioned.
